Can pregnant women use anesthesia to treat their teeth?

When a woman is pregnant, her body will be very different from before. Because she is carrying a baby in her belly, she must be cautious when choosing medications, otherwise there will be side effects and harm to the baby's growth. If you treat your teeth during pregnancy, try not to use anesthesia, because anesthesia will damage the nervous system and cause nerve insensitivity. Try not to treat your teeth during pregnancy. Let's learn about it below.

It is best not to get pregnant during dental implant surgery because anesthesia is required during the surgery. X-rays, etc., and the operation will cause bleeding. Although the possibility is relatively low, there is still the possibility of infection. These things are unpredictable, and once infected, drug treatment is required. It is difficult to say whether these will cause harm to the baby or cause deformities. Therefore, it is best to get pregnant six months after the dental implant surgery. If it is urgent, you can wait for a month after the dental implant to see if there is any problem with the wound. You can consider pregnancy only after the wound has healed.

It depends on the type of pain. If it only hurts when you feel cold or hot stimulation, or when you bite something, but the pain goes away immediately after there is no stimulation, it means the problem is not serious and the pulp may be able to be saved, so you just need to get a new restoration. If the tooth continues to hurt after stimulation, or hurts even without stimulation, that is, there is spontaneous pain, it means that the pulp has been inflamed and the hope of saving it is relatively small. It is likely that a nerve-killing treatment is needed.

Anesthetics are medicines that are beneficial to health, and the country does not encourage the sale of anesthetics. Nowadays, anesthesia is an indispensable good thing for major and minor surgeries and many treatments. It is also a necessity for cosmetic surgery. Anesthetics also have positive applications in many other areas. Anesthesia is not a drug. China has had anesthetics for a long time.

That is, the method of taking Chinese medicine to implement anesthesia. The earliest record of the use of anesthetics can be found in Liezi: Tangwen. In the second century AD, Hua Tuo performed surgery using anesthesia with Ma Fei San taken with wine. Volume 18 of "Effective Prescriptions of the World's Doctors" by Wei Yilin of the Yuan Dynasty states: "For injuries from falls, pain in bones and flesh, and inability to straighten them out, first use anesthetics and wait until the patient no longer feels the pain before operating. If the patient is not numb after taking the anesthetics, add five cents of Datura flower, Hua Tuo and Aconitum carmichaelii, mix with a little good wine and drink it. If the patient seems drunk, do not add the medicine." It is necessary to achieve a relatively ideal anesthetic effect while preventing overdose that may lead to poisoning or even life-threatening. It has been widely used and improved in later generations. After 1949, the application of traditional Chinese medicine anesthesia such as Datura and Camphor tree in clinical practice made traditional Chinese medicine anesthesia shine again.
